This is something we've been thinking about and in our conversations there are many SME/Founders that want to be more hands on in the day to day of their finances, being able to generate reports instantly instead of playing phone tag.

I don't know if it's the case that Accountant's or CFOs wouldn't care about a 10x user experience improvement, our bet is that the majority of folks are looking for a better UX, devs just know that they could build it if they really wanted to. One thing we're focused on is the learnability of the tool, building a system that allows folks to reach a level of knowledge to feel comfortable quickly, and we're trying to pair that with flexibility, so people feel empowered to build the systems/flows that feel the more viable for them and their businesses/accounting practice.

Hey yeah (i'm JT) we built it from the ground up using Pixi. We went that route because so many of the existing libraries were limited in their extensibility, stuff like our model visualizations, inline ai, and customizing the formula lang to handle things like dot notation weren't possible. It's got a long way to go but I'm proud of how far the team has taken it.
